Porto and Barcelona clash in potentially vital Group H encounter
10817

On Wednesday night, Porto and Barcelona go head-to-head at the Estadio Do Dragao in gameweek two of Group H in the Champions League group stages.

Porto

The Portuguese outfit heads into this clash on the back of a potentially crucial 1-0 defeat at Primeira Liga title rivals Benfica. The defeat ended a seven-game unbeaten run in all competitions with six wins and a draw.

Included in their recent stellar run was opening their Group H campaign with a 3-1 win at Shakhtar Donetsk. The win continued a decent recent record for the Portuguese team in European football’s elite competition, as they have won five of their last seven games in the Champions League.

Porto are also unbeaten in their previous three home games in the Champions League, having recorded two wins and a draw. Their recent decent home form is based on solid defensive displays, as they have conceded just one goal in their three unbeaten games in the competition.

Barcelona

The Catalan giants warmed up for this clash with a hard-fought 1-0 home win over Sevilla in La Liga. The victory extended the Blaugrana’s unbeaten run in all competitions to nine games this season, having recorded seven wins and two draws.

Barcelona kicked off their Champions League campaign with a 5-0 home hammering of competition debutants Royal Antwerp. The victory means that Barcelona has recorded back-to-back victories in the competition but have won just two of their last six games in the Champions League.

They have also lost three of their last four away games in the competition, having failed to score in any of their defeats in the poor run.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that Barcelona will record what could be a vital narrow victory in Group H of the Champions League.
